Once there was a timid teeny tiny ghost.
He lived in a teeny tiny house with two teeny tiny black cats.
The teeny tiny ghost went to Teeny Tiny School.
He learned his teeny tiny alphabet, shivered at spooky stories, and heard about Halloween.
He had never been out on that night, but it sounded very scary.
Each day after school the teeny tiny ghost tried to do his homework.
"Haunting is very hard," he told his teeny tiny black cats.
They sat on the windowsill to watch.
First he boooooed, then he whoooooed, till he made the rafters rumble and he had to hide his
teeny tiny head.
The he howwwwwled, and he yeowwwwwled, till the echoes came a-calling and he had to hide his teeny tiny head.
"I'll never learn," wailed the teeny tiny ghost.
"I'm so timid, I scare myself!" And a teeny tiny tear slid down his cheek.
His teeny tiny cats climbed on his lap, licked his teeny tiny face, and purrred their teeny tiny purrs.
On Halloween night some eerie yellow lights bobbed by the house of the teeny tiny ghost.
"What's that?" he said, holding his cats close.
And his teeny tiny heart beat bumpety-bump.
Then he heard Rap Tap Tap on his teeny tiny door.
"Whoooo's there?" called the teeny tiny ghost.
"Let us in," cried the voices, and they sounded very big.
The teeny tiny ghost looked around.
Could he hide?
He slipped inside the grandfather clock.
But he shivered and shook till he made the clock chime BING...BONG... BING...BONG...BING.
The teeny tiny ghost thought his head would explode.
He undid the latch and escaped.
RAP TAP TAP came the knocking on his teeny tiny door.
"Let us in," cried the voices, and they sounded very loud!
The teeny tiny cats mewwwed and meowwwed.
"Don't be afraid," said the teeny tiny ghost.
"I won't run away. I'll keep you safe. We have to be very very brave."
The teeny tiny ghost took a long large breath.
He huffed and he puffed till he felt very big.
He boooed and he whoooed till he felt very bold.
He howwwwwed and he whowwwwwed till he sounded very loud.
His best friend, Gilbert, wore a blue sailor suit.
He tooted tiny tunes on a teeny tiny horn.
His teen ytiny teacher had a hat and cape.
"You can be a magician with your teeny tiny cats!"
Then the teeny tiny ghost with his teeny tiny friends sailed up the street on parade.
They tapped on teeny windows, they rapped on tiny doors, while jack-o-lanterns smiled in the bat-black night.
The teeny tiny ghost gave a teeny tiny giggle and whispered to his teeny tiny cats:
"HAPPY HALLOWEEN!"
